There are several different types of aquarium lighting available. Fluorescent lighting is the most common way to light an aquarium. You have to buy specially designed fluorescent lights and bulbs to use with your aquarium to get the maximum benefit and prevent the growth of black algae. There are three different types of fluorescent bulbs. Color-enhancing bulbs show your fish and aquarium décor most vividly. Full spectrum bulbs approximate real daylight and provide the best lighting for growth. Both types of bulbs can be used in freshwater or saltwater, but freshwater tanks with live plants need full spectrum light. If you have a coral reef aquarium, you will also need actinic blue light for proper coral growth. Compact fluorescent lights are more energy efficient than regular fluorescents and are space savers. Hoods and canopies are other accessories for your aquarium you should consider buying. Both prevent water evaporation and prevent fish from jumping out of the tank. Some hoods come with built in light fixtures. Hoods and canopies both have features that hinge for easy feeding and can accommodate aquarium accessories like pumps. At Sortprice.com, youll find a wide selection of lighting fixtures, light bulbs, hoods and canopies for all kinds of aquariums.
